Energy Type: Biomass Source:Sugar cane, wood, and wastes
How is this energy converted/transferred into usable energy?
Biomass is converted into energy by burning fuel then hot water produces steam, the steam changes to turbines; the turbine changed generators then creates electrical power. How is this type of energy used today?
Biomass can be used for heat, a stove, a boiler, burned to get energy for a car, and burn garbage to make electricity. Advantages:
